You now have to be able to see a creature falling in order to trigger the reaction to cast this spell. Technically you can still target falling creatures you can't see but you don't get the reaction unless you see a creature fall or are falling yourself.

So in the specific situation where you hear a creature fall within 60 feet but do not see them fall, even if they tell you "Help! I'm falling!" you cannot cast the spell. Weird situational wrinkle.

"You land on your feet" has been taken out with no explanation.

So do you still land on your feet? Are you prone?  Land on your head if falling head first? What now happens?

Would appear to have slipped proof reading.

 If it made you prone, it would say so. Otherwise, it's a first level 'make target creature go prone' spell.  It doesn't need to specify. 

The components are a small feather or a piece of down. What the heck is a piece of down?

That's not what they mean. It says the creature takes no damage from their fall, but not that they don't land prone, which is also a result of falling.

Naw, I just checked. The new falling rules say you don't land prone if you don't take any damage from the fall.
